Could Reese Steadi-Flex Weight Distribution Be Used on Travel- Lite Falcon F-20
Question:
Im just getting into trailering. I have not even picked up the Falcon F-20 yet. im wondering if this Reese model would be good. The specs say it is for a slightly heavier trailer, but wonder if that is a problem.

I looked up the Travel-Lite Falcon F-20 and it has a dry tongue weight of 260 lbs. The way to pick out a weight distribution is to base it off of the loaded tongue weight of the trailer including any weight behind the rear axle from cargo in this figure. So the Reese Steadi-Flex kit part # RP66558 would most likely work great for you as it has a tongue weight range of 400-600 lbs but you do need to determine what your tongue weight will be loaded first.
For a 2 inch ball you'd then want the part # 63845 and you'd be set.
